Mike Figgis' 3 minute shorts for Tate museum

In partnership with London’s Tate, director Mike Figgis has made a series of 3 minute short films around the museum’s “This is Sculpture” project which is an “ambitious and challenging look at the rich history of modern and contemporary sculpture, presenting major works of art from the Tate Collection across two floors of the Gallery.” Figgis’s shorts record the public’s engagement and responses to these pieces. I particularly enjoyed the one above of British students articulately and candidly debating Jeff Koons’ striking and controversial basketball sculpture. You can view more at the Tate’s YouTube page.
